- GP Lecture Series 2
| Date and Time | October 14th (Wed) 17:00-18:00 |
|---|---|
| Place | Nanzan University, Nagoya Campus, P room |
| Participants | Five UHH students, Four Eibei students |
The five UHH students and three freshman Eibei students reflected on their experiences throughout the program in this event. This event was a chance for the students themselves to think over what they experiences, what they learned from these experiences, and how they have grown as people. The purpose of the event, much like the Joint Project Presentations was also to inform the other Eibei students about the program and the knowledge that was gained so that all might benefit from this exchange program. A senior student also presented on her area of research (she was unable to make the later event that the other students presented their research in because of job hunting) which was the Mala (traditional Hawaiian Garden) and what she learned about sustainability and the environment from the gardener there. It was an emotional and heart-warming experience but the progress in the freshman students' ability to present in a natural way was something that left a very strong impression on everyone.

Hawaii Nanzan Reflection Presentations
The freshman Eibei students who participated in the program spoke of their home stay experiences while in Hilo. They talked about the bonds that they created with their University of Hawaii at Hilo partners and how classes at UHH helped spark their interest in further learning on a wide range of topics. The senior Eibei student presented on her experiences at the Hawaii Community College, where they worked in the Mala (a traditional Hawaiian garden). She spoke on the need to respect and give back to nature and what she learned from the teacher about how to do so. Finally, the students from the University of Hawaii at Hilo spoke of their experiences in Japan and what was wonderful and surprising about their time at Nanzan.
